It is recommended to run a cleaning cycle with a dedicated whirlpool bath cleaner at least once a month, or more frequently if the bath is used daily, to maintain hygiene and optimal performance of the jets.
It is generally advisable to avoid bath bombs, oils, or bubble bath products, as they can leave residues that clog the jets and pipework, potentially damaging the system. Stick to liquid cleaners and salts specifically designed for whirlpool baths.
Please refer to the product packaging or the manufacturer's website for specific warranty details. Typically, acrylic baths have a manufacturer's warranty covering material defects.
You can choose from a wide range of freestanding, wall-mounted, or deck-mounted taps. The choice depends on your desired aesthetic and bathroom layout. Ensure the tap's reach and height are suitable for the bath's dimensions and your intended use.
The product description states it includes a leg set. Waste and overflow fittings are typically sold separately. Please check the product listing or contact the retailer for confirmation.
The whirlpool pump requires a standard mains electrical supply, usually connected via a dedicated circuit. The exact power rating and connection requirements should be detailed in the installation manual provided with the bath.
Check that the pump is correctly connected to the power supply and that the circuit breaker has not tripped. Ensure the water level is sufficient to activate the pump's safety cut-off (if applicable) and that the air intake to the jets is not blocked.
Verify that the air controls for the jets are open and that the air intake is clear. Check for any kinks or blockages in the pipework connecting to the jets. A professional check of the pump may be necessary.
This could indicate an imbalance in the jet system or air intake. Ensure all jets are clear of debris. Running a cleaning cycle might resolve minor blockages. If the issue persists, consult the installation manual or a professional.
Some operational noise from the pump is normal. However, excessively loud or grinding noises may indicate a problem with the pump motor or impeller. Ensure the bath is level and the pump is securely mounted. If noise is concerning, contact a service technician.
